16: Chapter 16: A whopping five million, armed to the teeth!

After parting ways with Zhao Yang, Wang Pingan did not immediately leave the school gate, but instead turned around and went to the school's Advanced Meditation Room.

Located behind the teaching building, the Advanced Meditation Room was a place specially designated for outstanding students to connect to their Divine Kingdoms and process resource cards.

It had an independent Formation that could isolate external interference, as well as a miniature teleportation array for conveniently receiving supplies from the mall.

Ordinary students had to spend quite a few credits to use it once.

Wang Pingan had just obtained fifty thousand credits, which he could use right now.

The teacher on duty at the entrance saw him, directly verified his identity, and his attitude was much warmer than usual.

"Wang Pingan, Advanced Meditation Room Number Three is vacant. You can use it for two hours."

Wang Pingan nodded in gratitude: "Thank you, Teacher."

He swiped away a portion of his credits and entered Meditation Room Number Three.

The stone door closed, the Formation patterns lit up, and the outside sounds were immediately cut off.

Wang Pingan sat down on the white jade futon and raised his hand to open the Federal Mall on his wristwatch.

The actual combat class was won very easily.

Yet he wasn't feeling smug at all.

That battle exposed a very obvious problem.

His subjects had strong combat power and good coordination, but they were still bare-handed.

Facing a ragtag team like Liu Cheng's, being bare-handed could still crush them.

However, the Nova Assessment was not a class actual combat lesson.

By then, there would be geniuses from other schools on Tianhai Star, as well as deities of the same age from alien planets.

Those people's subjects might have armor, weapons, battle beasts, and special building bonuses.

If his Immortal Martial subjects continued to go bare-handed, their advantages would be wasted in vain.

Looking at the mall interface, Wang Pingan directly switched to the low-tier standard equipment category.

He did not consider mining and forging iron inside the Divine Kingdom.

That path was very steady and could also train the civilization's productive capacity.

But it was too slow.

From mining, smelting, forging, and training in usage, to forming a scale, a normal Divine Kingdom would take a lot of time.

Of course he had time acceleration, but the acceleration couldn't be wasted on low-grade ironware.

The most important thing in the Early Stage was the Formation of combat power.

Problems that could be solved with Source Power Points did not need to be hammered out from scratch by his subjects hitting Ore.

Wang Pingan currently had close to ninety million Source Power Points on hand.

What he needed to do was very simple.

Spend money.

Directly arming the combat subjects of the Divine Kingdom.

The mall interface refreshed continuously.

[F-grade steel light armor, single set priced at two thousand Source Power Points.]

[F-grade steel heavy armor, single set priced at three thousand five hundred Source Power Points.]

[F-grade rune longsword, single hilt priced at one thousand eight hundred Source Power Points.]

[F-grade rune round shield, single surface priced at one thousand five hundred Source Power Points.]

[E-grade cold iron battle armor, single set priced at thirty thousand Source Power Points.]

Wang Pingan's gaze lingered on the steel heavy armor and the rune longsword.

E-grade equipment was better, but the price was high, and the quantity could not be spread out.

Before the Nova Assessment, what he needed was organized armaments, not just luxury sets for a few elites.

F-grade steel heavy armor was enough to protect Early Stage Body Refining and Body Forging subjects.

The F-grade rune longsword came with basic sharpness runes, suitable for Immortal Martial subjects to use together.

Martial Dao Citizens could slash and kill in close combat.

Cultivation Citizens could also use Spiritual Qi to activate the runes as a basic self-defense weapon.

Wang Pingan clicked on the details and reconfirmed the parameters.

The steel heavy armor weighed eighty catties. Mortals wearing it would affect their movement, but subjects above Level 1 Body Forging could fully withstand it.

The rune longsword was three feet and two inches long, with low-tier sharpness patterns engraved on the blade, consuming little energy and being simple to maintain.

These two items were not flashy, but they were just right for the current Divine Kingdom legion.

Without delay, Wang Pingan directly entered the quantity.

Steel heavy armor, one thousand sets.

Rune longswords, one thousand blades.

The mall immediately popped up the checkout page.

[1,000 sets of F-grade steel heavy armor, total price 3.5 million Source Power Points.]

[1,000 F-grade rune longswords, total price 1.8 million Source Power Points.]

[Totaling 5.3 million Source Power Points.]

[According to the Federal tax law, deducting 10% personal income tax and 2% platform service fee, a total of 5.936 million Source Power Points.]

Looking at the tax column, Wang Pingan's heart did not fluctuate.

Yesterday he paid 650,000 in taxes for buying C-grade spirit plants, and today he paid over 600,000 more for buying equipment.

The Federation's knife took its cut steadily.

However, compared to the increase in combat power, this bit of money was worth it.

He directly clicked confirm.

[Payment successful.]

[Goods are being delivered via the miniature teleportation array, please check and receive them.]

The teleportation array in the corner of the meditation room immediately lit up.

White lights fell batch after batch.

Box after box of steel heavy armor was neatly stacked, and the heavy metallic sounds kept ringing out.

The rune longswords were sealed in long boxes, and every scabbard was affixed with a Federal Mall inspection talisman.

Before long, the meditation room was piled full of material boxes.

Wang Pingan raised his hand to touch the box bodies, and after confirming the quantity was correct, his consciousness sank into the Divine Kingdom.

Within the Divine Kingdom, the plain village was already much larger than it was initially.

The foot of the Small Spirit Vein was shrouded in Spiritual Qi, and the Purple Cloud Peach Forest began to expand.

Red mist rolled beside the Mysterious Blood Pool, and the Red Blood Ginseng Field had already been specially fenced off by the subjects.

Wang Mu was leading the Cultivation Citizens to practice basic Spiritual Qi shocks.

Wang Shan was training the Martial Dao Citizens in the martial arena, and the shouts of the Savage Bull Body-Forging Fist came wave after wave.

Through time acceleration and resource feeding, the number of subjects who had stepped into the threshold of cultivation had exceeded five hundred.

Among them, some had reached Level 2 Body Refining and Level 2 Body Forging, already becoming the core combat power of the Divine Kingdom in the Early Stage.

Wang Pingan's Divine Lord phantom manifested in the vault of heaven.

The subjects in the village immediately stopped the tasks in their hands and knelt down in unison.

"Greetings, Divine Lord!"

Without saying much, Wang Pingan directly threw one thousand sets of steel heavy armor and one thousand rune longswords into the Divine Kingdom.

The next moment, a large expanse of light rain lit up the sky.

Heavy wooden boxes fell from the sky one by one, landing steadily on the open space in the center of the village.

The boxes opened, neatly displaying silver-gray heavy armor and rune longswords with cold light flowing over them.

The subjects in the village were all dumbfounded.

Previously, they still wore animal skins and coarse cloth, and their best weapons were only stone axes and wooden spears.

Now the Divine Lord directly bestowed batches of fine equipment upon them.

That kind of impact was far more intuitive than one or two spiritual objects.

Wang Shan was the first to react, kneeling on one knee and shouting: "The Divine Lord bestows armor, the Divine Lord bestows swords! We shall surely sweep away all enemies for the Divine Lord!"

Wang Mu followed closely behind, his tone impassioned: "For such divine grace, we will not fail even if we die ten thousand deaths!"

All the subjects kowtowed frantically.

The shouts in the open space merged into one.

Wang Pingan's divine decree descended, covering the entire village.

"Those who have stepped into cultivation shall have priority in receiving armor and swords."

"Martial Dao Citizens practice charge Formations, and Cultivation Citizens practice defensive Formations."

"Starting from today, the Divine Kingdom's combat subjects are relieved of miscellaneous chores, specializing in cultivation and specializing in combat."

Wang Shan immediately stood up and began organizing the Martial Dao Citizens to collect their equipment.

Wang Mu also led the Cultivation Citizens to record the distribution list to prevent chaos.

The five hundred subjects who had already stepped into cultivation lined up.

The first batch of Martial Dao Citizens took off their coarse cloth clothes and put on the steel heavy armor.

The heavy armor clicked shut, and metallic sounds rang out in unison.

When they grasped the rune longswords again, their entire Aura changed instantly.

Before, they were strong tribal Martial Artists.

Now they had become a true combat legion.

The Cultivation Citizens had already reached the Body Refining Realm, and their physiques far surpassed Mortals. Although wearing heavy armor made them look slightly heavy, their sense of security increased significantly.

Weak spiritual light lit up in their hands on the rune longswords, the sharpness patterns were driven by Spiritual Qi, and the blade's chill was compelling.

Standing in front of the martial arena, Wang Shan raised his longsword high and ordered: "Form up!"

The five hundred subjects quickly formed a phalanx.

The front row of Martial Dao Citizens stood holding swords, and the back row of Cultivation Citizens held swords to guard their positions.

The heavy armor formed a silver-gray array, and the rune longswords flickered with cold light under the sunlight.

Overlooking this newly formed legion, Wang Pingan finally felt much more satisfied in his heart.

The shortcoming of being bare-handed had been made up for.

Resources, Cultivation Techniques, cultivation, and equipment—all four key points were in place.

Next, as long as they continued to accelerate training, this Immortal Martial Legion would grow stronger and stronger.

In the center of the village, Wang Mu and Wang Shan quickly distributed the equipment, and the five hundred subjects who had stepped into cultivation put on heavy armor, completely transforming into a stern and solemn regular army.
